It always happens ... just when things are going smoothly, life throws you a surprise punch.
But there's always the garden. For me, the garden provides a place I can come back to. I can rely on it being here. It's familiar, safe, beautiful, quiet. It doesn't get hurt or angry.
And although there are definitely cycles of life and death in the garden, for the most part there are no surprise punches. It's just the expected, natural cycle of life. It won't hurt you and it doesn't make you cry.
The garden will listen. It will entertain you, distract you, give you a workout, and feed you. It will show you beauty. It will make you happy.
